Reviews
Randy is a wonderful publisher who truly care about his authors and the books he helps bring into the world. -don Miguel Ruiz, author of The Four Agreements-- "Reviews"
Think Like A Publisher is a must read for both new and experienced authors. After writing and publishing three books, I can honestly say that I wished Randy Davila wrote this book years ago. Its simple, practical and powerful approach gives you all you need to know about authoring your own work. I read the entire book in one sitting and I encouraged my entire staff to read it too. Anyone who wants to write a book and gain valuable insight to the new world of publishing, this book is the magnum opus. -Dr. Joe Dispenza, author of You Are the Placebo: Making Your Mind Matter, Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: How to Lose Your Mind and Create a New One, and Evolve Our Brain: The Science of Changing Your Mind-- "Reviews"
Think Like A Publisher is incredible! It may be the single most educational piece of literature ever written on the subject of publishing, and is applicable to both non-fiction and fiction authors. I highly recommend it! -Shayne Traviss, founder of VividLife.me-- "Reviews"
